Problem in E4 rerun

[Alfahringur]

Hi everyone! I'm sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand me!

For E4 rerun, i'm using Chansey Stealth Rock team, with Gengar, Scrafty and Chandelure (Destroyer) and Metagross/Rotom (Tricker).

The problem is: I use stealth rock and change Chansey for Gengar, I use "encore" and after first nasty plot, opponent's Pokémon is switched out. This happens OFTEN/ALWAYS When i saw videos on E4 rerun, this problem never happens. I make some errors? What have I to do? 

Help me, please :(

I don't think it was ever listed in any recent patch notes but npcs will always switch when you encore. You probably  just have to replace gengar with something else man.

The e4 rematch video on YouTube was outdated. Now, the NPC become smarter. So... you need to find another way.

 

Tbh, due to this change, I don't think doing an e4 rematch is worth it anymore.

I really like that you have to think and predict move from opponent. I see that they don't switch two consecutive time, so if u use teleport otherwise change Chansey, it's ok. The problem Is a close combat on chansey ahahahah. Thinking on Mean Look on Gengar or in a Gothielle with her ability

Gothitelle has no Shadow Tag in PokeMMO and Shadow Tag itself is badly nerfed.

But why they nerd in this mod E4 rerun? At the Moment It isn't workable, They eliminate a farming mode, One of the best

Trick choice scarf cheese still works pretty well.

What trickster are the best Bartolomew?

[Bartolomew]

Metagross probably because of the typing (a lot of teams have fire/ground/fighting moves which will make me use trick and it can tank most, if not all of them). In my team I also have gothitelle, most certainly not the best, but it helped me with figuring out every ability/item each team has so I use it just because I have it

I think on rotom for ground/ fight immunity and Fire/ Psychic/ Dark weakness. It Is perfect for switch in with chansey and set good choice scarf move for Scrafty/ Chandelure
